Spinach and Artichoke Dip Crescent Ring
Spinach and artichoke dip crescent ring. What’s better than a buttery crescent roll? Why a buttery crescent roll ring filled with scrumptious spinach and artichoke dip of course!
When I was making my taco ring months ago, it only seemed natural to ask myself: what else can I stuff into a crescent ring? Surely there must be dozens of great ideas for crescent ring recipes. I don’t know how spinach and artichoke dip occurred to me but I’m so glad it did. It’s not only a showstopper in looks but is 1000% in taste.

But if I to tell you that spinach and artichoke dip stuffed inside buttery crescent rolls is good I feel like I’m insulting your intelligence so I’m not going to talk too much about how good it is and just tell you how to make it. What I will say is that this is probably one of the tastiest things I’ve ever made. Also, I can’t tell you how relieved I was that the dip didn’t completely ooze out all over and make a mess. Just that one little naughty drip in the above photo which I kinda like.
Ingredients
Pillsbury crescent rolls – the recipe calls for two packages but you may not use the entire second can.
Frozen spinach – thawed and drained as best as you can
Artichokes – canned and unmarinated
Cheeses – mozzarella, parmesan and cream cheese
Mayonnaise
Seasonings – garlic powder, salt and pepper
How to make it
Mix up the dip first and refrigerate for 1 hour. This will firm up the dip so you can mold it into a ring shape.
Use your largest baking sheet. Line it with parchment and place a 5-inch diameter bowl or mug in the center.
Arrange crescent rolls in an overlapping circle around the mug, pressing down to smooth the pieces of dough together.
Remove the bowl and place the chilled filling around the circle shaping the dip into large cylindrical chunks.
Lift each triangle tip and wrap over the filling and tuck into the center. Repeat with remaining triangles.
Brush with egg wash to ensure the most golden brown exterior and bake for 20-25 minutes.

- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Chill Time: 1 hour
- Cook Time: 25 minutes
- Total Time: 1 hour 40 minutes
- Yield: 12 1x

- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 2 cans crescent rolls
- 1 8 oz block cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 1/2 cups frozen spinach, thawed and drained of excess liquid
- 3/4 cup canned artichoke hearts, measure then chop
- 1 beaten egg, optional for egg wash
Instructions
Make the filling
- Mix cream cheese, mozzarella, parmesan, mayo, garlic powder, salt and pepper until fully combined. You can use an electric mixer but it should be soft enough to just use a spoon. Fold in the artichoke and spinach. Make sure the spinach has been squeezed of excess liquid.
- Refrigerate dip for 1 hour before assembling the crescent ring.
Assembly and baking
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and place a 5-inch bowl in the middle of the parchment paper.
- Arrange crescent rolls in a concentric, overlapping circle around the bowl. You maybe not need all of the rolls. Just use enough to get around the bowl and save the rest.
- Once all dough triangles have been arranged, remove the bowl. Press down on the dough to smooth triangles together, and use your fingers around the center to create a lip around the middle.
- Remove filling from the fridge and shape the dip into large cylindrical chunks around the center of the circle.
- Gently lift the tip of each triangle over the filling and press into the inner edge of the circle, smoothing out as you go.
- Brush with beaten egg if desired.
- Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until evenly golden brown.
- Enjoy!
Notes
It’s important to refrigerate the filling for smooth assembly. You can also make it ahead the day before and refrigerate overnight.
Egg wash is optional, but it does ensure a perfect golden brown exterior.

How can you make this a day ahead? Oven space is limited in the day I want to serve it. Reheat in microwave?
Hi Beth,
You can reheat in the microwave but I don’t really recommend that. This is just one of those things that is best served fresh. Hopefully you can find a way. This one really is a hit!
Thank you for the quick reply. I’ll save this recipe for a cocktail party instead of a dinner party.
Is 2.5C of frozen spinach equal to one 10 ounce box of frozen chopped spinach?
